I live in Port St Lucie about 70 minutes north of my favorite area casino, Harrahs.😊. Great videos. Caught a cold on a plane in mid-February. I had a terrible sore throat just like you said! Went to the doc, they tested me for Covid and strep. Both were negative. Doc said I had a sinus infection. Went back to days later with the worse ear ache ever, couldn’t hear and had constant ringing! Had a horrible ear infection. Went to the ENT yesterday; the ringing and hearing loss may be permanent!!😮😮😮
keep the grind on ur get there soon one more month ur be there . i think u and and marriano have the best game of all the vloggers and i watch them alll u stay within ur range .
I think when you have A2 of spades on a flop of 2c-2d-3d and the BB check-raises you, you should’ve 3-bet the flop. BB likely has a weaker trips or flush/straight draws, and shouldn’t fold to a 3-bet with most of those holdings. I think you could’ve made more money in that hand.
Would love to go golfing with you, think I could help your game, you have a nice swing. Also. would love to set in on some hold em with you. We have common interests that's for sure. Great video as always Lex. Jay from Pa.
Glad you and the pets are on the up and up (in more ways than one #$$)! It's easy to forget what a blessing it is to be healthy until... I make it a point to wash the hands more when at the casino-those chips are a science experiment waiting to happen.
K9 guy slowplaying the K9 got him into trouble. The check-raise flop, raise turn, check river guy vs your A2s screams "busted flush draw". He got caught by you holding a hand on the flop when he was hoping for no 2s, 3s or overpairs and didn't have any good lines of play left after that.
I love you a lot dude but to be honest, I have three dogs and I think I love them more than I love you (you and I are the same page. I’m just kidding you). That being said, you’re a good dude and I love watching your progress. Good luck on redeeming the money you lost. I think it’s a good quality that you have and you will definitely do it because you are the man.!!
Lex, I don't know if you read the comments often since I rarely see you reply but... friendly advice. Go to a driving range or hit balls as the course where you never take your backswing further than 2 ft back. From there, pause and the swing HARD through the ball. Trust me, you'll see improvement quickly.
I don’t get the raising with jacks all the time. Every time I do the flop comes AK5 and you’re dead with 3 callers. Wait to flop a set. Tournaments yes. Cash no
Niceeee comeback Lex!!! 34k upswing lfg . Think u can raise the turn wA22 he’s representing a lot of strength, you beat most of it. Who cares about balance as you said
Always enjoy the content Lex. You won the hand so it did not matter! On the hand when you had A♠️2♠️ board came 2,2,3 then 10 on the turn looks like you said he cuts out two lots of three chips for a bet as you say of 600. You call with a yellow 1k chip but looks like the dealer only gave you back on the tap 3 $100 for $300 missing you the fourth $100 chip. If I missed it then I am sorry. Looks like in the video the fourth $100 chip might have been dropped back maybe by mistake into the pot! As I say always enjoy seeing your vlog. Keep up the good work.
As I say enjoy your poker blogs always a great watch. And must be hard playing and keeping a track of hands, bets/ action. As I say look forward to your next vlog and glad to see you are on your up swing.
Had infected tonsils 40 years ago that put me in the hospital. Steroids cleared them in a day but had infections on and off for the next year. Had them taken out a year later as the antibiotics could not completely heal them.
I just wanna make a comment about the pocket jacks hand... If you call there I think you call as a set mining hand... Sure can he once in a while have pocket 10's or AK yes... But here's something I've noticed when playing pocket Jacks especially... When you don't see an Ace or King on the flop it is even more of an indicator that they have 1 of those 2 hands... Sure there's Kings and Queens that were not out there as well but my point is you are worried about him having 3 hands when holding jacks...Kings,Queens or Aces... You have the Jacks and if he's holding Aces or Kings for now there's only 2 overs that most likley can hit the flop other than a set that hits like 11.6% of the time... So when I see that dry of a flop I'm actually even more inclined to think he's got 1 of the 3 over pairs higher than mine... In all the years of live play with how this hand went that seems to be the case... The other thing is what does shipping it accomplish... You're only folding out AK and getting called if you're beat at this point... The if you got it you got it is a gamblers approach especially with a single pair and 4th ranked starting pair holding... Let's not 4get you can also be beat by sets here as well. Bottom line it's an over play without enough information that turns into a donation.These type of $2k bets in an otherwise good session are what get you into the hole that you're trying to dig yourself out of... What I try to tell myself is this... How excited are you when you have say KJ or QJ with a jack on the board... Even AJ...Depending on board and if you hit 2 pair or have a draw to go with it you might be in good shape but are you gonna be wanting to get stacks in with it...I don't think so... Sure is this a little diff yes but you're not giving him enough credit or the fact that other people can wake up with QQ,KK and AA when you have Jacks...I don't mind the call as a set mine but I think after that it has to be player dependent and even as a set mine like I said you're only flopping that set aprox 11.6% of the time...I know you said you prob overplayed the hand... Bottom line when you said you were really card dead this might have played into it as well.... ✌️
When I first started playing golf, I took some lessons just to get the fundamentals down. You should look at hiring a coach because there are a lot of things that can be improved.
Watch your own video with the jacks. hand. You basically say you're always going to lose all of your money when playing jacks when someone 4 bets you on the board comes out low. That's just losing poker. You've already seen people not 4 betting AK in the game. What does he 4 bet you with there? AA, KK and maybe AKs. There's 12 combinations of AA and KK and 4 combinations of AKs. That's not to mention you don' go through any reads on the guy. Didn't consider his stack size pre-flop. Fold pre flop and you save $1500. That's rent.
@ 6:50 Maybe it's just me but those digits rolling the AA over against your red JJ? Looked very old man coffee-ish. When an OMC 3 bets me or raises? Warning Will Robinson. I'll insta fold or call and see the flop with JJ. If I don't hit my set? Especially if the flop is all undercards and he seems to love what he sees? I'm definitely out of there. But then again I'm a low stakes rec player with no bankroll and you're the pro so what do I know? 😁
Your swing isn't too bad but you need to keep your left arm straighter and swing a bit harder in tempo, but keep you backswing nice and slow then fire through the ball. You'll gain distance that way. Watch some women pro's swings and notice how slow their backswings are compared to men pros which are very difficult swings to master.
Hey fella don't comment much but always watch your vids and smash the like button, Great vid as always,Tonsillitis had this when i was about 18 you will get it again, I had it every month for about 7 months then the DR said was glandular fever. Gave me pills to take that was like trying to swallow a shoe lol. Told me if cam back again will have my tonsils out, But after the 8th time never got again thanks god, Yeah you can't eat or drink the pain is unreal. Try ice pops we call them that in the uk. So at least can get somthing down you, All the best for the catch to 60k much love fella.
Golf tip… when your left arm gets parallel to the ground during your backswing, start your hips towards the target. Essentially your arms and hips are briefly going in opposite directions.
I feel like we also deserve a summary of your golf game ... something like : +17, balls lost: too many to count 😷... JK, congrats on rebuilding your bankroll
I don’t like how you played the JJ hand. Turn bet is good as we can use protection against overs , but the river jam is not good. We should be checking here. Allow villain to bluff with A high holdings as they are not calling a big river bet. Also, as played he does not have 10s or 99 in range.
Lie lie lie! Anyone can be good online! Dude is a solid kid with family money 🤣 🤣 more power to him tho (other than lying to the world) I'd be playing poker if I was loaded down with money!
I’m the JJ hand vs AQ I think the River jam doesn’t seem ideal, just feels like when you get called you just lose, don’t you think it’s better to X River and let villain bluff?
Lex if you come out to LA, hit me up. I can make you a way better ball striker in 45 minutes. Your swing is almost there. A few major flaws that are such an easy fix.
True that. Nothing worse than having back to back to back premiums and getting sucked out on and then your session is over a lot quicker than you expected.
